Census Work Will
Start Here Soon
Mrs. Charles Echols, census
^enumerator for C.urry County
told the chamber that she want
ed helpers to aid her in the work
as rapidly as possible. I have a
few in the north end of the coun
ty, but none here, except prom
ise. All these must be trained
for this work.
“Please admit these people in
to your homes. Please answer
a’.l questions honestly, and re-
member these people are just do
ing a job. Census work is in con-
f'^ence. None of this information
will be revealed to the world.
“In order to get the job done
in the required time, help me in
this work by being as co opera
tive as possible,’’ she asked the
people.
ing a new site for an air strip,
Charles Echlos, of the airport
committee, reported to the meet
ing of the chamber of commerce
last Thursday evening.
The proposed site, a portion
of Harris State Park, would be
sufficient, Mr. Echols told the
chamber, but the highway de
partment would not permit take
offs and landings that close to
state highways. By moving the
runway back some 500 feet, we
can get away from this hazard,
but this move would mean lots'
of excavation of rock, which is
an expensive process.
However, the committee saidj
it was still working on another
spot, but could offer no immedi
ate hope for an air port.
